+ Irving Berlin wrote the song in 1918 but it was not until Armistice Day 1938 that it became a hit sung by Kate Smith
While the storm clouds gather far across the sea, Let us swear allegiance to a land that's free. Let us all be grateful for a land so fair, As we raise our voices in a solemn prayer:
God bless america, land that I love, Stand beside her and guide her Through the night with a light from above. From the mountains, to the prairies, To the oceans white with foam, God bless america, My home sweet home.
+ Kate Smith pays tribute to a heroic war widow at the age of only 19 who works proudly in the radio division of Benedict’s Aviation in Baltimore, Maryland. Jacqueline Prets started war work immediately after hearing that her husband had been killed in action and has become a valuable contributor to victory.

Spoiler :
I did the detailed history of the song God Bless America and her introduction of it. What is ironic is that she is not remembered for anything but this song. She sang hundreds of songs, was on radio and TV for over 4 decades, but is not remembered for anything else.

ABOUT OLD TIME RADIO
The buzz-term for Old Time Radio is "OTR". OTR usually means radio broadcasting from the golden age of radio,
mostly before 1964.These shows from the pre-television age include adventure,
comedies, mystery shows, western dramas and shows from World War II.
These programs feature the best talent of the day and were broadcast nearly as widely as cable programs today.
And just like TV today, families would gather around their crystal radio sets to enjoy the entertainment together.
